Squabs On Forty Fab Lyrics - Squeeze

(Difford/Tilbrook) 

I've come across the desert 

To greet you with a smile 

My camel looks so tired 

It's hardly worth my while 

To tell you of my travels 

Across the golden East 

I see your preparations 

Invite me first to feast 

Take me I'm yours 

Because dreams are made of this 

Forever there'll be 

A heaven in your...

Every Lyric From Shawn Mendes' Self-Titled New Album 

The Indians send signals 

From the rocks above the pass 

The cowboys take positions 

In the bushes and the grass 

The squaw is with the Corporal 

She is tied against the tree 

She doesn't mind the language 

It's the beating she don't need 

She lets loose all the horses 

When the Corporal is asleep 

And he wakes to find the fire's dead 

And arrows in his hats 

And Davy Crockett rides around 

And says it's cool for cats 

(Cool for cats...) 

Photos 

I never thought it would happen 

With me and the girl from Clapham 

Out on a windy common 

That night I ain't forgotten 

When she dealt out the rations 

With some or other passions 

I said you are a lady 

Perhaps she said I may be 

Left my ring by the soap 

Now is that love? 

You cleaned me out you could say broke 

Now is that love? 

The better better better it gets 

The more these girls forget 

That that is love 

But behind the Chalet 

My holiday's complete 

And I feel like William Tell 

Maid Marian on her tiptoed feet 

Pulling mussels from a shell 

The case was pulled from under the bed 

She made a call to a sympathetic friend 

And made arrangements 

The door was closed there was a note 

I couldn't be bothered 

Maybe I'll choke 

No more engagements 

With where have you beens 

And faraway frowns 

Trying to be good 

By not being 'round 

And here in the bar 

The piano man's found 

Another nail for my heart 

If you ever change your mind 

Which you do from time to time 

Never chew a pickle 

With a little slap and tickle 

You have to throw the stone 

To get the pool to ripple 

Sunlight on the lino 

Woke me with a shake 

I looked around to find her but she'd gone 

Goodbye Girl
